By The Associated Press ON THE GULF OF MEXICO — With success uncertain, a boat carry- ing a 100-ton concrete-and- steel contraption designed to siphon off the oil fouling the Gulf of Mexico arrived at the scene this morning in an unprecedented attempt to cap a blown-out well spew- ing hundreds of thousands of gallons a day. Another boat with a crane would start lowering the box to the seafloor later in the day. Engineers hope it will be the best short-term solution to controlling the leak that has only worsened since it began two weeks ago.

Mississippi marching its way to mid-May crestBy Steve [email protected]

The Mississippi River is on its third significant rise of the year and is forecast to jump 1 to 2 feet per day until May 15, when it tops out at its Vicksburg flood stage of 43 feet on the local gauge.

“What’s driving all of this are the heavy rains that they had recently in the Tennes-see area,” said Dave Ramirez, senior hydrol-ogist at the Lower Missis-sippi Forecast Center in Slidell, La.

The Cumberland River lapped out of its banks at Nashville Monday after severe storms dumped more than 13 inches of rain on the city during the week-end. The Cumberland and Tennessee rivers both feed into the Ohio River, which converges with the Mis-sissippi River at Cairo, Ill., which is forecast to crest this evening at 9 feet above flood stage.

Organizers of the 17th annual Letter Carrier Food Drive stand outside the U.S. Post Office on Pemberton Square Boulevard, getting ready for this year’s drive, on Saturday. The collection is organized by Local Branch 94 of the National Association of Letter Carriers, in conjunction with the U.S. Postal Service and United Way of West Central Mississippi. Nonperishable

food items will be collected from mailboxes and distributed to local agen-cies. The total collected last year was about 14,000 pounds of food. Stand-ing with the banners are, from left, Elijah Johnson, Deborah Montgomery, Charlie Martin, Janice Thompson and Donnie Frith.

PLANNING FOOD DRIVE

Debris in counties hit hard-est by the April 24 tornado could receive cleanup assis-tance from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Vicksburg District.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency has assigned $7.5 million to the

district to remove debris from counties requesting federal help. Presently, Yazoo and Choctaw counties have asked for such direct assistance.

Teams of Resident Engineers and Quality Assurance Inspec-tors will be deployed to coun-ties requesting federal assis-

tance. Debris removal will be contracted through local ven-dors and providers.

Warren County has applied to the Mississippi Depart-ment of Environmental Qual-ity to approve a debris collec-tion site near the Simmons Planting Co. cotton gin. Tree

limbs and other nonstructural debris may be disposed of at the site.

MDEQ has encouraged taking storm debris to solid waste management facilities in “high-impact areas” in the tornado’s path. In Warren County, those sites are the

Waste Management-Vicks-burg Municipal Solid Waste Transfer Station on Missis-sippi 27, Vicksburg-Warren County Landfill on Pit Road, off U.S. 80, and Warren County Waste Control, on Jeff Davis Road.

Vicksburg woman charged with credit card fraud

PASCAGOULA (AP) — A Jones County chancery judge has ruled constitutional a 2007 state law that required the Pascagoula School District to share future tax dollars gen-erated from Chevron facilities with other school districts.

The Pascagoula School Dis-trict had filed suit challenging the constitutionality of the law authored by then-Sen. Tommy Robertson, R-Moss Point.

Under the law, property taxes generated from new expan-sions at Chevron Refinery and liquefied natural gas facili-

ties in Pascagoula would be shared among the Pascagoula district and the Moss Point, Ocean Springs and Jackson County school districts.

Jones County Judge Franklin C. McKenzie Jr. ruled against the lawsuit Wednesday in Laurel, according to the Mis-sissippi Press. A copy of the ruling was not available until it is filed in Jackson County Chancery Court.

“We’ll have to evaluate where we are now and then proceed forward,” said Pasca-goula Superintendent Wayne

Rodolfich. “This is just one step in the process.”

Rodolfich said he would present the judge’s ruling to the school board Monday and they have 30 days to decide if they will appeal the case to the state Supreme Court.

The Pascagoula district cur-rently retains taxes on exist-ing Chevron facilities.

The statute states that Pas-cagoula would receive 29 per-cent of taxes generated by the new developments and the other districts would split the remaining 71 percent based

on enrollment. That currently breaks down to 37 percent for Jackson County schools, 22 percent for Ocean Springs and 12 percent for Moss Point, according to Superintendent Barry Amacker of Jackson County’s district.

Pascagoula filed the law-suit, hoping the law would be ruled unconstitutional and it would avoid that split and get the entire property tax collec-tion, officials have said.

“The judge said the burden of proof was on Pascagoula to prove the law was unconsti-

tutional,” said Ocean Springs Superintendent Robert Hirsch. “The judge said the Legisla-ture has the right to make the laws how they want. Based on the way things went today, I think even if they do appeal to the Supreme Court, it will go in our favor.”

While Chevron has since announced its expansion plans are on hold, the $1.1 bil-lion Gulf LNG plant is under construction on Bayou Casotte and scheduled to begin opera-tions next year.

Legislature backs Angellefor La. lieutenant governor

BATON ROUGE (AP) — Louisiana’s natural resources secretary, Scott Angelle, will temporarily take over as the state’s lieutenant governor.

Gov. Bobby Jindal picked Angelle, a Democrat from Breaux Bridge, for the job. State lawmakers unanimously approved him Wednesday for the office left vacant when Mitch Landrieu became mayor of New Orleans earlier this week.

Lawmakers praised Angelle’s work leading the Department of Natural Resources under the Republican Jindal and his Democratic predecessor, Kath-leen Blanco.

The Senate voted 34-0 to con-firm Angelle’s appointment, and the House agreed 100-0. Angelle will leave his job as natural resources secretary temporarily while he works as lieutenant governor.

Klan leader pleads guilty to killingOklahoma woman, sentenced to life

COVINGTON, La. (AP) — The leader of a Ku Klux Klan group in Louisiana pleaded guilty Wednesday to killing an Oklahoma woman — an erratic recruit who a witness said yelled “I want out” the day after her initiation.

Raymond Foster, 49, of Bo-galusa, was immediately sen-tenced to life in prison for sec-ond-degree murder by state District Judge Peter Garcia.

Cynthia Lynch, 43, a Klan recruit from Tulsa, Okla., was shot and killed in November 2008, the day after initiation rites in rural St. Tammany Parish, about 50 miles north of New Orleans.

Frankie Stafford, a former member of the Klan group, testified Monday that Lynch cried tears of joy the night of her initiation but the next day angrily cursed Foster and yelled “I want out” before Foster shot her to death.

After entering his plea

Wednesday, Foster’s voice was shaky as he apologized to Lynch’s mother, Virginia Lynch, who was in the court-room’s front row.

She had been present throughout jury selection and Stafford’s testimony and wept at times as prosecutors out-lined the crime.

“I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me,” he said.

The plea came on the second day of what was often gruesome testimony.

Defense lawyer Kevin Linder said he believes Foster decided to plead guilty so he could spare

his friends, family and Virginia Lynch the ordeal of sitting through a full trial.

“I think seeing Ms. Lynch’s mother in the courtroom defi-nitely had an impact on his emotional state,” Linder said.

About a half dozen of Foster’s family and friends approached Virginia Lynch, offered con-dolences and embraced her after Foster was led out of the courtroom.

“She’s got her justice,” Vir-ginia Lynch said later, while expressing sympathy for Fos-ter’s family. “I’m happy he’s going to prison in one way and I’m sad in another.”

In his opening statement, Assistant District Attorney Joseph Oubre said there was some question whether Lynch knew what the Klan stood for. He noted that she had been diagnosed with bipolar disor-der, characterized by severe mood swings.

2 indicted in case of home-care deathJACKSON (AP) — Two

people have been indicted in the death of a mentally ill woman who died of hypo-thermia while living in an unli-censed personal care home in Jackson.

Eugenia Johnson, 21, of Jack-son was arrested Wednesday

on charges of culpable neg-ligence manslaughter and felony abuse of a vulnerable adult.

Listed as a co-defendant in the complaint is Stepha-nie Fields, the owner of the personal-care home where 43-year-old Janice Hollins died

earlier this year.Officials have not arrested

Fields, but court records show she has been indicted on 16 counts. Johnson is being held in the Hinds County Detention Center without bond.

Nashville residentsreturn to devastation

NASHVILLE (AP) — Amanda Fatheree had about an hour to flee the floodwaters from her west Nashville home Sunday with her husband, mother and three young chil-dren. What she saw when she returned a day later left her heartbroken.

Furniture she and her hus-band spent years paying off stood in their front yard, soaked and caked with mud from deadly flooding caused by record-busting rains that forced thousands to evacuate — some by boat and canoe. Her children’s toys, clothes, books and games were destroyed, along with two vehicles that were left behind.

“When I first got here, I just cried and cried. My whole life was gone,” she said.

Flash flooding and storms killed at least 29 people in Ten-nessee, Mississippi and Ken-tucky and at least two people were still missing Wednesday. The flooding was caused by rains of more than 13 inches and affected both rich and poor in this metropolitan area of about 1 million.

Mayor Karl Dean estimates the damage from weekend

flooding could easily top $1 bil-lion in Nashville alone.

As the rain-swollen Cumber-land River continued to recede Wednesday, Nashville’s down-town remained without power and one of two water plants was disabled, but officials said progress was being made on both problems.

It was getting easier to get around Nashville, and to clean up. City crews were set to begin hauling away residents’ flood-ruined possessions today and some roads, closed by high water were reopened.

Ralithea Hill and her hus-band swam out of their front yard early Sunday, each carry-ing one of the family dogs. The couple returned home to find almost everything damaged or destroyed by the water.

Pam Hiers still wasn’t able to get into her home in the Pennington Bend neighbor-hood. Standing in waders in the murky floodwaters, Hiers could only look toward the house and imagine the devas-tation inside.

“You just actually get sick thinking about that first step when you walk into your home,” she said.

White supremacistwanted to be cremated

BRANDON, Miss. — White supremacist Richard Barrett wanted to be cremated with-out a funeral service or any public ceremony, according to his will.

Barrett’s body has been released but Rankin County Coroner Jimmy Roberts would not give details, citing the ongoing criminal investi-gation into Barrett’s slaying.

The 67-year-old Barrett was stabbed to death in his Rankin County home on April 22. Vincent McGee has been charged with capital murder and arson. His case will be presented to a grand jury in June.

Barrett’s will was filed in October in Rankin County Chancery Court. It showed Barrett owned homes in Learned and Rankin County.

Man says guiltyto Red Cross fraud

NEW ORLEANS — A 29-year-old Hammond man has pleaded guilty to wire fraud related to applications he made to the American Red Cross for financial help after Hurricane Katrina.

U.S. Attorney Jim Letten said Marques Harrison entered the plea Wednesday before U.S. District Judge Kurt D. Engelhardt.

According to court docu-ments, the relief agency made disaster money of up to $1,565 available to those affected by the 2005 hurri-canes on a one-time basis. Harrison admitted submit-ting applications on eight occasions between Sept. 15, 2005, and Oct. 26, 2005, each time representing that he had not received help in the past. Based on the fraudu-lent applications, Harrison obtained $7,825 that he was not entitled to.

Harrison faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Sentencing is set for Aug. 11.

Three cheers aren’t enough for Ari-zona. It’s the first state to defend American citizenship on the basis of identity, and American sovereignty on the basis of borders. In an age of blurred identities and undefended borders, Arizona has put itself in a good, old-fashioned state of revolt against the postmodern, global-minded state of being foisted on us by internationalist elites up to and including President Barack Hussein Obama.

That’s the effect, anyway, of Ari-zona’s new immigration law, which, as George F. Will has aptly pointed out, “makes what is already a federal offense — being in the country ille-gally — a state offense.” Only in our time, with identities blurred, borders undefended and elites internation-alized, could this be controversial. Among other things, the new law requires state law enforcement to verify a person’s immigration status in the course of “lawful contact.”

Far from heralding the deployment of jackbooted terror squads among the tumbleweed and sprinklers, Ari-zona’s new law acknowledges that American citizenship does and (wow) should exist, and affirms that sover-eignty, ignored at the federal level, is the responsibility of a state overrun

by illegal aliens mainly from neigh-boring Mexico.

Given our psycho idea of “normal” — alien-strained schools, bankrupted hospitals, advancing bilingualism and “sanctuary cities” — this new immigration law has aroused Estab-lishment wrath. Moving across the spectrum from Right(ish) to Left, this ranges from the tense chorus of tut-tutting from the pro-amnesty Republican underbelly (Jeb Bush, Karl Rove, Tom Ridge), to insta-calls for boycotts of Arizona from Cali-fornia officials, denunciations from Left-wing national pols and pundits (Nancy Pelosi, E.J. Dionne), a pos-sible Justice Department investiga-tion from President Obama, and, of course, much razzing from La Raza and other Che-idolizing open-bor-

ders and Reconquista agitators.There’s another reason. Arizona

suddenly poses an unexpected threat to the status quo of permissible law-lessness, the illegal demographic transformation of this country into a linguistic and cultural extension of Latin America. This out-of-control movement has been tolerated if not facilitated by our political leadership for several decades under the dan-gerous influence of what we know as multiculturalism, the school of thought that has widely delegiti-mized U.S. identity altogether. Maybe more than anything else, Arizona’s law restores a civic sense that there exists such an identity, and it is, and should be, legally protected. Thus, the multiculti rage.

A second bill pending in Arizona

concerns another legal aspect of American identity, namely the con-stitutional requirement that our presidents be “natural-born” and not “naturalized” Americans. Both laws may be seen as state-level attempts to safeguard the nation according to principles set forth in the Con-stitution because authorities have failed to act responsibly at the fed-eral level.

The “natural born” bill would require presidential candidates run-ning in Arizona to submit proof of their constitutional eligibility to the Arizona secretary of state. In the case of President Obama, one such proof would be his long-form, circa 1961, birth certificate. This original form includes, for example, the name of the hospital where a person was born, as well as that of the attend-ing physician — information not included in the computer-generated short form that has appeared online and is of recent vintage.

Just as the state’s new check on immigration status seems appro-priate, so, too, does this potential requirement that presidential candi-dates prove their “natural born” bona fides, a requirement that, according to WorldNetDaily.com, is also under consideration in state legislatures

in Georgia, New Hampshire, Okla-homa, South Carolina and in the U.S. Congress.

I’ve never understood the derisive wrath targeting Americans trou-bled by Obama’s refusal, for reasons unknown, to release his long-form birth certificate and end the divisive natural-born controversy — partly, of course, because I am one such Amer-ican. Another so troubled is Army Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, who, taking seri-ously his oath to preserve and pro-tect the Constitution, has laid it all on the line: Lakin has stopped obey-ing military orders, including deploy-ment orders to Afghanistan for his second tour, pending release of the president’s original birth document proving his constitutional eligibility to be commander in chief. Unconscio-nably, the president prefers to see Lakin court-martialed rather than show his old paperwork. Why?

Unanswered, the question consigns us to that limbo of uncertainty — of blurred identities, undefended bor-ders and internationalized elites. But identity matters. The law mat-ters. And the Constitution matters above all.

LaughableCrowing about tax cuts is a bit too much

In a strange bid for popularity, top Democrats are campaigning and even seeking praise as tax-cutters. Even as growing num-bers of people gasp and groan under the weight of taxation, the Obama administration is insist-ing that 97 percent of all Ameri-cans enjoyed tax cuts in the past year. But how many actually felt that kind of relief?

Administration officials point to such programs as the higher earned-income and child tax credits. They don’t mention other taxes that were added to offset those reductions. And they also don’t mention that while the withholding tables IRS pro-vides to employers were altered slightly, the extra change in peo-ple’s pockets was still subject to the same tax rates.

As government spending sky-rockets, the need for money to pay for federalized health care,

“green energy” initiatives and other programs grows along with it. To raise that money without invoking the dreaded T-word, Washington’s tax-and-spend-ers are getting creative. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, who is now a special financial adviser to the president, have said that with the escalating need for revenue amid a linger-ing recession, all options are on the table.

Those options include new energy charges and “sin” charges on fast foods. Politicians are still looking for ways to tax Internet use.

Speaking to the New York His-torical Society in April, Volcker said it’s becoming likely the gov-ernment will implement a value-added tax. Pelosi also supports this levy.

Value-added taxation hides the

charge from the consumer while still imposing it. Simply put, busi-nesses that produce goods or pro-vide services are taxed according to the calculated value they add to whatever they produce. Each company along the production process is charged for its share of the cost increase. Of course, the tax is simply added to the final cost, so the consumer pays it anyway as is done with all goods and services. But since it’s part of the price, this federal version of a state sales tax would not show up on a receipt.

Americans are not unreason-able. They know government costs money and expect to be taxed. But Americans aren’t as stupid as top Dems seem to think. Hearing them claim to be good fiscal stewards who are reducing our tax burdens is pushing the envelope a bit too far.

Arizona is just saying citizenship means somethingOnly in our time, with iden-

tities blurred, borders un-defended and elites inter-nationalized, could this be

controversial.DIANAWEST

A6 Thursday, May 6, 2010 The Vicksburg Post

NEW YORK (AP) — Days before the failed car bomb in Times Square, a Pakistani-American scouted the bustling district in the same vehicle and then, on a second trip, left a getaway car blocks from his chosen target, a law enforce-ment official has told The Associated Press.

Faisal Shahzad, now in custody on terrorism a n d we ap -ons charges, drove a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder to Times Square from Connecticut on April 28, apparently to figure out where would be the best place to leave it later, the offi-cial said Wednesday. He then returned April 30 to drop off a black Isuzu, according to the official, who spoke on condi-tion of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the

investigation.The official said Shahzad

went back Saturday and left the SUV loaded with firecrack-ers, gasoline and propane, enough to likely create a fire-ball and kill nearby tourists and Broadway theatergoers

had it gone off successfully.Shahzad, 30, of Connecti-

cut, admitted to rigging the Pathfinder with a crude bomb based on explosives training he received in Paki-stan, authorities say. He was pulled off a Dubai-bound plane

Monday and has been coop-erating with investigators. No court appearance has yet been scheduled for Shahzad, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan said today.

Kifyat Ali, a cousin of

Shahzad’s father, has called the arrest “a conspiracy.”

In a city still jittery from the failed car bomb driven into one of its most famous neighborhoods, a truck aban-doned near a toll booth to the Robert F. Kennedy Bridge caused alarm late Wednesday when a bridge authority offi-cer believed he smelled gaso-line coming from it and saw a man flee the truck. But the truck turned out to be empty and not a threat, the New York Police Department said.

The bridge, formerly called the Triborough Bridge, is a major connector in the city, linking Manhattan, Queens and the Bronx. Police were looking to speak to the person who abandoned it.

Shahzad is believed to have been working alone when he began preparing the Times Square attack, almost imme-diately after returning in Feb-ruary from his native land, authorities said. They said

they have yet to find a wider link to extremist groups or to pin down a motive.

“It appears from some of his other activities that March is when he decided to put this plan in motion,” New York Police Commissioner Ray-mond Kelly said Wednesday. “He came back from Pakistan Feb. 3, 2010. It may well have been an indicator of putting something catastrophic in motion.”

Meanwhile today, Pakistani officials said U.S. law enforce-ment officers have joined them in questioning four accused members of an al-Qaida-linked militant group over possible links to Shahzad.

Two Pakistani security offi-cials said four alleged mem-bers of the Jaish-e-Moham-mad militant group were being questioned.

They said U.S. law enforce-ment officials as well as Pak-istani ones had been given access to the men.

DETROIT (AP) — Nine jailed Michigan militia mem-bers accused of conspiring to overthrow the U.S. govern-ment could be released today after winning the latest round in the fight over whether they should be freed while they await trial.

In a ruling late Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Victoria Roberts said she would not further suspend her Monday order that releases the mili-tia members with strict con-ditions, including electronic

monitoring and curfews.The nine were expected to

be returned to federal court to be processed this afternoon before being released.

Prosecutors, however, still could ask the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati for an emergency stay block-ing Roberts’ order. A mes-sage seeking comment was left with U.S. Attorney Bar-bara McQuade.

Roberts had ordered the mili-tia members released Monday, then suspended her decision

while prosecutors decided whether to appeal. Hours before Roberts ruled that she would not extend that stay, prosecutors had told the judge they would appeal and warned that the public could be at risk if the nine are freed.

“Defendants are presumed innocent of all charges against them. ... This presumption of innocence is part and parcel of why, ’In our society liberty is the norm, and detention prior to trial or without trial is the carefully limited exception,”’

Roberts wrote, quoting a 1987 U.S. Supreme Court decision.

The members of the south-ern Michigan militia, called Hutaree, are charged with con-spiracy to commit sedition, or rebellion, against the govern-ment and the attempted use of weapons of mass destruc-tion. They have been in cus-tody without bond since late March.

Authorities, citing secretly recorded conversations, say the group planned to kill a police officer and bomb the

subsequent funeral. Defense attorneys say it was nothing more than hateful talk.

Prosecutors claim the sus-pects are too dangerous to be released from jail. But Roberts has set many restrictions and appointed third-party custodi-ans, mostly family members, to keep watch.

An undercover agent infil-trated the group and secretly recorded some members talking about killing police and fearing a “New World Order.”

Earlier this week, Roberts said it was “offensive and hate-filled speech” but it did not signal a conspiracy to levy war against the government.

William Swor, lawyer for militia leader David Stone, 44, of Clayton, Mich., said he was delighted to see the judge’s latest decision.

“We think it’s another step toward vindication, but we have no delusion that this is over,” Swor said Wednesday night.

DUBLIN — All airports in Scotland and Ireland reopened today after the latest engine-wrecking ash cloud from Iceland’s volcano drifted west back into the Atlantic.

But Eurocontrol, the con-tinent’s air traffic manage-ment agency, said it was considering rerouting flights between Europe and North America to avoid ash buildup over the North Atlantic.

The latest threat from Ice-land’s Eyjafjallajokul volcano caused two days of runway shutdowns and flight cancel-lations in the Republic of Ire-land, Northern Ireland and Scotland, inconveniencing an estimated 100,000 travel-ers. Irish and British air-lines launched extra services Thursday to help get them on their way.

The volcano has regularly belched out ash since its

eruption began April 13, and European air authorities ini-tially reacted April 14-20 by shutting down all air services in countries to the east.

Biden to Europeans:Missile defense at fore

BRUSSELS — Vice Presi-dent Joe Biden said today that Washington remains determined to deploy its planned anti-missile system in Europe to counter the danger of Iran’s nuclear pro-gram and its long-range bal-listic missiles.

“The United States and European Union have stood side-by-side to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons,” Biden told the European Parliament. “Iran’s nuclear program violates its

obligations under NPT and risks sparking a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.” The NPT is the nuclear Non-Prolifer-

ation Treaty.The Obama administration

last year scrapped Bush-era plans for an expensive mis-sile defense network based in Poland and the Czech Republic. It replaced them with a more flexible plan to deploy Patriot air defense missiles in several countries in eastern Europe and on ships in the Black Sea and Mediterranean.

TV news employeewins Mega Millions

LOS ANGELES — The big

news for KNBC worker Jacki Wells Cisneros broke right inside her own newsroom — she and her husband won the $266 million Mega Millions jackpot.

She discovered during her usual routine on the assign-ment desk Wendesday that the winning ticket had been purchased by her newly unemployed husband Gilbert Cisneros.

A quick wakeup call to her husband, then a check of numbers was all it took to determine that they held the winning ticket. “I just cried, and laughed,” she said.

The winner has 60 days to tell lottery officials how he or she wants the money. It can be paid in 26 equal payments of $10.2 million or in a lump sum of about $165 million, minus federal taxes, said lot-tery spokeswoman Cathy Doyle Johnston.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s only hope of avoiding bankruptcy is to take money from a joint EU and Interna-tional Monetary Fund rescue package, the government said today during a heated Parlia-mentary debate overshad-owed by the deaths of three people during protests against spending cuts.

Greece has to impose harsh austerity measures, including slashing salaries and pensions and increasing taxes, in order to get money from the $140 bil-lion three-year package, which will provide the country with loans from other eurozone countries and the IMF.

“Today things are simple. Either we vote and imple-ment the deal, or we con-demn Greece to bankruptcy,” Prime Minister George Papan-dreou said ahead of a parlia-mentary vote on the austerity measures.

The rescue loans are aimed at containing the debt crisis and keeping Greece’s trou-bles from spreading to other countries with vulnerable state finances such as Portu-gal and Spain. The euro has

sagged as those countries have seen debt downgrades, falling below $1.28 today; late last year it was as high as euro1.51.

The spending cuts have sparked outrage in Greece, with an estimated 100,000 people spilling onto the streets of Athens during a nationwide general strike Wednesday to protest the measures.

Demonstrations quickly turned violent, with protest-ers trying to storm parlia-ment and clashing with police

in extensive riots that saw banks, stores and hotel win-dows smashed and two build-ings burned.

A man and two women — one of whom was pregnant — died when they became trapped in a burning bank torched by protesters. Fire-fighters used a crane to rescue another four people from the building’s balconies.

Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou said the government had no choice but to impose the austerity

measures, which were being rushed through Parliament.

He said the draft bill was introduced as urgent legisla-tion because the country was two weeks away from default, with euro8.5 billion worth of bonds maturing on May 19.

“The state’s coffers don’t have that money,” Papacon-stantinou said. “Because today ... the country can’t borrow it from the international market. And because the only way for the country to avoid bank-ruptcy and suspension of pay-ments is to take the money from our European partners and the International Mone-tary Fund.”

But in order to receive the money, Greece must agree to a three-year austerity program, he added.

“The government has the responsibility of implement-ing the most difficult financial measures ever taken in this country. It is a program which requires effort and sacrifice, and obliges us morally and politically to succeed,” Papa-constantinou said, describing the rescue package as “our country’s last hand.”

Greece says EU, IMF bailout is only hope

People walk past a destroyed car and a broken store win-dow in central Athens today.

NEW YORK — General Motors said Wednesday that it is recalling all Hummer H3s produced since the 2006 model year to fix a portion of the hood that can detach during driving.

The voluntary recall affects 164,190 Hummer H3s and H3Ts in the U.S. and 198,404 worldwide.

Hummer spokesman Nick Richards said a device on the hood called a hood louver can come loose and possibly detach while driving.

In a recall documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administra-tion, GM warned the louver could strike another vehicle if it came off while driving.

Richards says the repair involves applying an adhe-sive to refasten the louver to the hood. He says there have been two complaints of the problem in the U.S. and three in Japan. GM said that Japa-nese transportation officials notified the company of the potential problem in January.

Group backs black box,brake override system

WASHINGTON — A trade group representing Detroit automakers and Toyota Motor Corp. plans to pledge support for requiring brake override systems and vehi-cle “black boxes” on all new vehicles as Congress devel-ops new safety improve-ments following Toyota’s large recalls.

Toyota’s recall of more than 8 million vehicles around the globe to fix faulty accelera-tor pedals and brake prob-lems with Prius hybrids has prompted the first major changes to auto safety requirements since the Bridgestone/Firestone Inc. tire recalls in 2000.

Congress is pushing the auto industry to meet new safety standards and impose tougher penalties on car companies that fail to quickly report safety defects to the

government. A House panel today was hearing from David Strickland, administra-tor of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administra-tion, automakers and safety advocates to discuss the leg-islation under development.

GM hires whizwho helped Hyundai

NEW YORK — General Motors Co. has hired the marketing whiz who helped Hyundai nearly double its market share in the U.S.

The taxpayer-owned auto-maker said Wednesday it is bringing on Joel Ewanick, 49, the former head of marketing for Hyundai Motor America who developed the successful campaign that promised to take back cars from custom-ers who lost their jobs. The campaign, called Hyundai Assurance, was instrumental in boosting Hyundai sales.

House set to take upenergy-efficiency bill

WASHINGTON — People who install new windows, heaters, refrigerators and other energy-efficient tech-nology in their homes would be eligible for thousands of dollars in federal rebates under legislation the House is taking up.

The two-year, $6 billion pro-gram is being referred to as Cash for Caulkers, follow-ing on the popular 2009 Cash for Clunkers program that rewarded people for trading in vehicles for more fuel-effi-cient models.

Democratic supporters say the bill, which has strong White House backing, has the triple benefit of creating thousands of jobs in the man-ufacturing sector, substan-tially lowering home energy costs and reducing green-house emissions.

buSInESSBY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner says a root cause of the financial crisis was Con-gress’ failure to give regula-tors enough power to rein in risk-taking by financial firms operating outside traditional rules.

But his predecessor Henry Paulson is cautioning lawmak-ers against overreaching on financial overhaul legislation that could stifle innovation.

Geithner and Paulson were testifying at a hearing today of a special panel investigat-ing the crisis and a so-called “shadow” banking system.

As president of the New York Federal Reserve in 2008, Geithner was one of the key architects of the government’s response to the crisis and the federal bailout.

Geithner said that the finan-cial overhaul legislation now before Congress would close

the gaps to give regulators needed powers to restrain risk in the “shadow” system.

“The history of this crisis is full of examples where regu-lators did not use the author-ity they had early enough or strongly enough to contain risks in the system,” Geithner said. “But a principal cause of the crisis was the failure to provide legal authority to constrain risk in this parallel financial system.”

The overhaul legislation, backed by the Obama admin-istration, has “been crafted to address these and other fail-ures,” Geithner says.

Paulson, who was Treasury secretary when the financial crisis began and crafted the Wall Street bailout, says reg-ulators need stronger tools to prevent future crises.

Paulson said the “shadow banking system” needs better oversight.

of their crops, but Warren County Extension Service Director John Coccaro said he does not anticipate wide-spread crop losses.

“I’m hoping this will be extremely temporary, and that water will fall back out as quickly as it comes up,” he said. “It’s unfortu-nate because over the past three years we’ve just been constantly plagued by high water or threatened by it.”

Mississippi 465, which leads to the Eagle Lake commu-nity from U.S. 61 North, and LeTourneau Road in south-ern Vicksburg will not go under water unless the river nears 46 feet.

In the Yazoo Backwater Area, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers likely will have to close the four, 30-foot-wide gates of Steel Bayou today or Friday, said Waylon Hill, civil engineering technician in the Corps’ water control division. Steele Bayou is the main drainage point for 4,093 square miles of levee-locked forest and farmland in the southernmost portion of the Mississippi Delta, north of Vicksburg. Its gates must be closed to prevent backwater flooding when the river stage gets as high as the water stage inside the backwater area.

The river stage at Steele Bayou measured 80.4 feet this morning, while the water stage on the land side of the flood control structure mea-

sured slightly higher at 80.6 feet. The National Weather Service this morning was forecasting only a 20 percent chance of rain in Issaquena County in the south Delta just north of Vicksburg.

With the gates of Steele Bayou closed, any rainfall over the area is trapped with nowhere to go. Without rain-fall, Hill said the backwater area water stage is forecast

to rise to about 84 feet. With normal rainfall, it will go to about 88 feet. Normal water stage for the area is 69 feet, and crops begin to go under-water around 86 feet.

While the river is forecast to make sharp jumps toward flood stage over the next week, Hill said it probably won’t recede as quickly once it crests. After Cairo crests, he said flood control reser-

voirs on the Ohio and other rivers will begin to be slowly emptied.

“It’s not going to be a very quick fall,” he said.

In mid-February, the river rose to an early season crest of 41 feet — which forecast-ers warned could signal an even greater spring rise. On April 9, the river rose to a crest of 40.9 feet.

If the river tops flood stage

this year, it will be the third consecutive year of spring flooding in Vicksburg — the first time that’s happened since 1996-1998. Last year the river topped out at 47.5 feet on May 27, and in 2008 the river peaked at 50.9 feet on April 19, which was the high-est stage since 1973.

funnel and siphon the oil up through 5,000 feet of pipe and onto a tanker at the surface. Oil has been gushing into the Gulf of Mexico at a rate of at least 200,000 gallons a day since an offshore drilling rig exploded and sank last month, killing 11 people.

“We’re a little anxious. They’re gonna try every-thing they can. If it don’t work, they’ll try something else,” Capt. Demi Shaffer said aboard his boat just after it set off.

A 12-man crew aboard a supply boat was carrying the precious cargo. The 280-foot Joe Griffin, owned by Edison Chouest Offshore, also was involved in helping fight the fire that resulted from the oil rig explosion. The vessel is named for a boat captain who worked with company founder Edison Chouest, when Chouest was still in the shrimping business.

The operator of the oil rig, BP PLC, has tried several high-tech undersea tactics to cap the leak. The con-tainment dome endeavor is unprecedented, and engi-neers say they are fully aware of the risks.

First, crews need to prop-erly position the four-story structure above the well as it sinks deep into the mud at the bottom of the Gulf with the help of a remote-con-trolled robotic submarine. A steel pipe will be attached to

a tanker at the surface and connected to the top of the dome to move the oil.

“It’s very dark down there ... and we will have lights on the (submersibles), and we know exactly where to put this and guide it into place,” said David Clarkson, BP’s vice president for project execution.

That process presents sev-eral challenges because of the frigid water tempera-ture — about 42 degrees Fahrenheit — and excep-tionally high pressure at those depths. Those condi-tions could cause the pipe to clog with what are known in the drilling industry as “ice plugs.” To combat that prob-lem, crews plan to continu-ously pump warm water and methanol down the pipe to dissolve the clogging.

They are also worried about a volatile cocktail of oil, gas and water when it arrives on the ship above. Engineers believe the liquids can be safely separated with-out an explosion.

Coast Guard Rear Adm. Mary Landry tried to mod-erate expectations that the containment box would be a silver bullet.

“I know we are all hoping that this containment system will work, but I want to remind everybody that this containment system is a first of its kind deployed in 5,000 feet of water,” Landry said.

Asked to handicap the odds of success, Bob Fryer, a senior executive vice presi-dent for BP’s Deep Water Angola, offered up this assessment: “This has never been done before. Typically you would put odds on some-thing that has been done before.”

Fryer also said BP is explor-

ing a technique in which crews would reconfigure the well that would allow them to plug the leak, but that effort is a couple of weeks off.

On Wednesday, good weather allowed 18 flights to drop 150,000 gallons of a chemical meant to break down the oil on the ocean surface, drag it into the water

column and prevent it from floating to shore, said Petty Officer 3rd Class Brandon Blackwell, a spokesman for the oil spill command center in Robert, La.

Crews also skimmed a total of 588,000 gallons of an oil and water mixture and con-ducted five controlled burns. More fires are scheduled.

ing privately since the explo-sion, said his brother and District 2 Tensas Parish Police Juror Danny Clark, who declined comment when reached Wednesday.

Clark had worked on oil rigs for 14 years, and his family is well-known and liked in the commu-nity, said Jones. He was an assistant driller with Trans-ocean Ltd., which owned the rig but was leasing it to BP at the time of the explosion.

“Our hearts go out to the entire family,” he said. “There has been an outpour-ing of support.”

Of the 11 workers killed in the explosion, five were from Louisiana, four were from Mississippi and two were from Texas. The search for the missing men was called off on April 23, the day after the rig eventually sank, and no bodies have been recovered.

ServicesA memori-al service for Donald Clark, one of 11 oil rig workers killed in the April 20 ex-plosion off the Louisiana Coast, will be Saturday at 1 p.m. at the Newellton Elementary School Gym, 400 Verona St.

One caller suggested sewing pillows together to line beaches and soak up the oil as it comes ashore. Along the same line, dozens of salons in Alabama and Florida are collecting hair trimmings with plans to stuff shorn locks into old stock-ings and create makeshift oil-absorbers called booms.

On Facebook, a group dedi-cated to the oil spill includes suggestions like using explo-sives to stop the gusher, which is about 5,000 feet underwater.

And some suggest the real solution is an old standby — prayer.

A group of business people with a product called Clean Kool have suggested using a carbon dioxide solution shot from guns to freeze parts of the slick, which could then be scooped up and refined. Sup-porters of the idea include consultant Lee Helms, a former director of the Ala-bama Emergency Manage-ment Agency who now is in private business.

SIDELINESWhite won’t returnto Ole Miss in 2010

OXFORD — Terrico White will hire an agent and enter the NBA draft instead of re-turning to play at Ole Miss next season.

White is the second start-er to leave the Rebels in the last six days. Forward Murphy Holloway said late last week that he intends to transfer so he can be closer to his daughter in South Carolina.

White was one of the na-tion’s best young players. The 6-foot-5 guard aver-aged 15.1 points per game this season, helping lead the Rebels to a share of the Southeastern Conference Western Division title and the NIT semifinals.

“My family and I have decided that it is best for me to stay in the upcom-ing draft,” White said in a release from the school. “This was a very tough de-cision to make. I would like to thank all of the coach-ing staff for giving me the chance to play at Ole Miss and for everything they have done for me over the past two years ... It really hurts for me to go, but this is what’s best for my fam-ily.”

Bulldogs getbeaten downSouthern Miss routsMississippi State/B3

Once again, Porters Chapel is finding a way to winRAYVILLE, La. — All of

the Rocky movies were cen-tered on a pivotal fight in which the Italian Stallion was pummeled, bloodied and beaten by a better fighter.

He’d fall. He’d be on the ropes, his chances hanging by a thread as his opponent — be it Apollo Creed, Club-ber Lang or Ivan Drago — pounded his face into ham-burger. He’d get back up. Stirring music would cue Rocky’s comeback as he landed haymakers aplenty and won the fight.

It worked, sequel after money-making sequel.

Porters Chapel is follow-ing the same path after last year’s unlikely MAIS Class A state title run. Last year’s baseball team was on the ropes in nearly every con-

test, yet, like Rocky, they managed to survive the bar-rage of blows and land the fight-winning knockout blow.

This time sit’s another year, same results. Like a Rocky movie, it’s the same chapter, same verse.

On Tuesday in Game 1 of their South State semifi-nal against Riverfield, the Eagles looked like anything but a reigning champion-

ship team. They booted balls around the infield. Routine plays became an adventure. With the exception of a lead-off home run by senior Colby Rushing, hits were few and far between. Tempers flared in the dugout.

But then, as they seemingly always do, the Eagles pulled things together. Nine times in their 13-game playoff win-ning streak dating back to last season, the Eagles have erased a deficit in the fifth inning or later.

First-year PCA coach Jerry Bourne is hard-pressed to put a finger on exactly how his charges find a way to get it done.

“I don’t know what it is, but I just came into it. They’re great,” Bourne said. “We never say die. They just come

to the ballpark expecting to win, by any means necessary. Today, we battled through not having our best game.”

The breaks went their way, sure. With PCA trailing 2-1 in the fifth, Rushing reached on a ball that took a nearly miraculous hop. A two-run triple by John Michael Harris was a routine flyball had the Riverfield outfield not lost it in a twilight sky before it landed and rolled to the fence.

It’s not a feeling of entitle-ment to victory. Rather, it’s a feeling of destiny. And while it’s not a tangible commod-ity that can be bottled up and sold, it’s something that gives them a powerful advantage. Even if it doesn’t show up on the stat sheet as a discern-ible metric.

“If we didn’t have that kind of mentality, we wouldn’t be where we are,” senior Mat-thew Warren said.

While the Eagle roster isn’t stocked with a multitude of talent like it was in the last decade, the attitude is still the same. Don’t give up the ship. Fight her until she sinks.

“We never get our heads down,” Rushing said. “Even when we’re down, we find a way to battle back up.”

The only difference between this sequel and the Rocky ones is there won’t be any belts, but medals and a ring. And no “Yo, Adrian.”

SaintsrewardEvansBy Brett MartelThe Associated Press

METAIRIE, La. — Once a fourth-round draft choice out of Division II Bloomsburg, Jahri Evans is now the highest-paid interior lineman in the NFL.

The Super Bowl cham-pion New Orleans Saints and Evans, who was both an All-Pro and Pro Bowler last season, agreed Wednes-day on a seven-year contract worth nearly $57 million.

A person familiar with the contract told The Associated Press the deal was for $56.7 mil-lion, with $19 million guar-anteed. The person spoke on the condition of ano-nymity because the finan-cial terms were not dis-closed by the club.

Evans’ Philadelphia-based agent, Jerrold Colton, confirmed the deal was the richest con-tract ever given to an NFL guard.

Evans was a restricted free agent, meaning the Saints owned his rights after a deadline passed for him to sign offer sheets from other teams. How-ever, Evans stayed away from New Orleans’ first volunteer offseason work-outs while GM Mickey Loomis and Colton worked on a deal.

Loomis announced the length of the deal on Wednesday and head coach Sean Payton said the 6-foot-4, 318-pound guard earned it.

The Saints allowed 20 sacks last season, fourth fewest in the NFL.

Evans, 26, has started all 64 regular-season games since 2006.

“What he’s able to do in the running game, the passing game, it’s much deserved on his part and I think it’s exciting for us as a club,” Payton said. “When you have a young, talented player the way Jahri’s been, it’s a credit to his work ethic, how he’s produced and how consis-tent he’s been.”

Vikings set to face juggernaut JaguarsBy Jeff [email protected]

Warren Central has seen plenty of Madison Cen-tral this season. Despite losing three times, though, the Vikings haven’t had enough.

Warren Central will take another shot at the Jaguars when the teams hook up for a second-round Class 6A playoff series, beginning Friday at Madison Central. Game 2 will be Saturday

at WC, and if a Game 3 is necessary it will be back in Madison on Monday.

Madison Central (26-2), which won the Class 5A title last year, has domi-nated most of its competi-tion this season — includ-ing WC. All three games against the Vikings (17-14) had pretty much the same theme, with WC struggling to score runs. It’s hardly a problem unique to this

Hard-hitting Warriorsup next for FlashesBy Ernest [email protected]

St. Aloysius has dodged a

bullet. Now all that stands between it and a shot at a second consecutive state championship are a hurdle and a roadblock.

The Flashes head to Nanih Waiya on Friday for Game 1 of a second-round Class 1A playoff series, with Game 2 set for Satur-day at Bazinsky Field. The winner advances to the semifinals against either Cathedral — which beat St. Al twice in the regular season — or Weir.

After dispatching pitch-ing ace Mitchell Wooten

and Edinburg in round one, Nanih Waiya poses a much different challenge for St. Al.

The Warriors (16-6) aver-age nearly 10 runs per game and have shown a knack for getting extra base hits. They’ve hit 26 home runs and 43 doubles. Domi-nique Carter leads the team with a .490 average and 11 home runs, despite play-ing only 15 games. Austin Swart has six homers and 37 RBIs.

Swart is also the team’s top pitcher, with a 1.95 ERA and 82 strikeouts in 46 2/3 innings.

“They score a lot of runs and swing the bats well.

You slow them down offen-sively and you’re in good shape,” St. Al coach Clint Wilkerson said. “All of our pitchers are going to have

to work the lower half of the zone and get ground balls.”

M-Braves beatBarons in 10th

Donell Linares’ double, combined with a fielding error, brought in the winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning Wednesday as the Mis-sissippi Braves beat the Birming-ham Barons 7-6 at Trustmark Park.

The M-Braves overcame a 6-0 defi-cit after 2 1/2 innings. They scored five runs in the fifth — the last three on Willie Cabrera’s second home run of the season — then tied it on an RBI single by Linares in the sixth.

Linares finished the game 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles and an RBI. Alex Romero was also 3-for-5 for the M-Braves, while Cabrera and Mauro Gomez had two hits apiece.

California weighingban on metal bats

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A California legislative committee advanced a bill Wednesday that would place a two-year morato-rium on the use of metal bats in high school baseball, responding to safety concerns that were raised when a Marin County teenager was severely injured earlier this year.

The moratorium would allow time for the bodies that govern baseball at the high school and collegiate level to review the safety of alumi-num and metal bats, which some say are more dangerous than their wooden counterparts.

The March incident left Gunnar Sandberg, a 16-year-old pitcher for Marin Catholic High School, in a coma for weeks, and prompted the Marin County Athletic League to suspend the use of metal bats.

The California bill, introduced by Assemblyman Jared Huffman, D-San Rafael, passed the Senate Education Committee on a 5-1 vote and now moves to the full Senate for consideration.

Fratello interviewsfor Hornets’ job

NEW ORLEANS — Mike Fratello interviewed with the New Orleans Hornets for the club’s head coach-ing vacancy Wednesday, a person familiar with the meeting said.

Hornets executives met with Fra-tello in Cleveland, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the club has not officially announced interview-ing Fratello.

Fratello has coached the equiva-lent of about 15 seasons with the Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland Cava-liers and Memphis Grizzlies. His last coaching stint was in Memphis from 2004-06.

He is the third coaching candidate interviewed so far. Former Dallas coach Avery Johnson and current Mavericks assistant Dwane Casey interviewed on Tuesday.

FlashesContinued from Page B1.

VikingsContinued from Page B1.

While Nanih Waiya cruised to a two-game sweep of Mount Olive in the first round, winning 2-1 and 15-0, St. Al (16-7) had to scrape itself off the mat to survive. It lost Game 1 to Edinburg, then got a pair of shutouts from Reed and Stephen Evans to advance.

The comeback, tough as it was, gave the Flashes momentum heading into round two. The Evans brothers threw a total of 13 scoreless innings, with Stephen Evans pitching a three-hitter in Game 3.

“The teams that are men-tally tough are the ones that win baseball games. I think the guys know that and take pride in the fact they’re tougher between the ears than the people they’re going to play,” Wilkerson said.

Not everything was rosy for the Flashes against

Edinburg, though. They scored 10 runs in a Game 2 blowout and just six total in the other two games. They had several chances to blow open Game 3, but left 11 runners on base and ended up scratching out a 3-0 victory.

Besides a simple desire to execute like the team that won last year’s Class 1A championship, Wilkerson said the Flashes need to score a lot of runs to keep up with a potent offensive team like Nanih Waiya.

“We didn’t get runners on early in innings. We waited until there were two outs to get rallies going and that’s tough to do,” Wilk-erson said of the Edinburg series. “We’ve got to score more than 16 runs to win this series. Our goal is to score eight runs a game.”

rivalry.Madison’s pitching staff

has a collective 1.33 ERA and opponents are hitting just .190 against them. The ace is Brayden Jones, who is 8-0 with a 1.42 ERA and 64 strike-outs. He beat WC in their third meeting of the season, 6-1.

“They’ve beaten us 4-0, 5-0 and 6-1. They’ve all been well-played games. And there’s been good pitching from both sides,” WC coach Josh Abra-ham said. “(Jones) pitched against us in that second Sat-urday game. They’ve all had a turn against him just like (Jay) Harper has gone up against them.”

L.J. Hollins (6-0, 0.63 ERA, 57 strikeouts) will likely start Game 2 and the third Madison Central starter is Josh Laxer (5-1, 1.97 ERA, 58 strikeouts).

The Vikings are unsettled with their rotation because they are just a couple of days removed from a draining three

game series with DeSoto Cen-tral. WC won twice on Monday, 9-5 and 12-5, to come back from a 1-0 series deficit.

Harper, the Vikings’ ace, pitched 10 innings in the series. He went six innings in the 1-0 loss at DeSoto Central and then came in during the fourth inning of Game 3 with the Vikings up 5-4 to close it out. He is 5-3 with a 2.54 ERA for the season. Colby Key is the No. 2 starter at 6-1 with a 2.64 ERA and Dee White (1-1, 0.38 ERA) is the top reliever.

At the plate, the Jaguars count on Ryan Bolden, who has hit six home runs and driven in 26 runs. Peyton Johnson leads the team with a .420 average while Jones is hitting .378.

Warren Central is paced by first baseman Dylan Wooten. He is batting .368 with 39 RBIs. Carlos Gonzalez (.367, 19 RBIs), White (.340, 22 runs scored) and Beau Wallace (.344, 17 RBI) round out the top Viking bats.

Mississippi State’s misery continuesBy Steve [email protected]

PEARL — Trustmark Park has become a chamber of horrors for Mississippi State lately.

Southern Miss only added to the misery.

The Golden Eagles piled on 16 hits and all nine starters scored at least one run in a 14-3 victory over Mississippi State on Wednesday.

The season’s first meeting between the two was a colli-sion of teams headed in oppo-site directions.

The Golden Eagles contin-ued their recent hot streak, taking home their eighth con-secutive victory and their first over a Southeastern Confer-ence foe this season.

Southern Miss (26-17) gets a big boost going into a huge home series against Confer-ence USA rival East Carolina, which starts Friday.

“Things are really coming together,” said Southern Miss designated hitter Adam Doleac, who went 2-for-2 with

three RBIs. “We’ve got a lot of new faces and it’s taken time for us to start playing together. There’s nobody on the mound or at the plate that we don’t have confidence in that they can get the big out or get the big hit.”

The other side of the ledger isn’t so cheery.

Mississippi State (20-25) dropped its eighth game in a row and third straight at Trustmark Park after falling 3-1 to SWAC foe Jackson State on Tuesday. It was the first time the Bulldogs had been beaten by JSU in 18 years.

The schedule doesn’t get any friendlier for State with a weekend series at Auburn (30-15, 12-9) starting on Friday.

Trey Johnson (0-2) took the loss for MSU, which had a horrid night on the mound. The Bulldogs used six differ-ent pitchers and all struggled, combining for eight walks and four hit batsmen.

“These kids are just going to have to grow up,” MSU coach John Cohen said. “It’s a dif-ferent thing that happens to us every night. You’ve got to make your breaks in baseball and we’re not doing the little things to get lucky.”

Despite the lopsided final score, State was right in the contest for most of it thanks to the Golden Eagles’ inability to hit early with runners in scor-ing position. USM left 11 run-ners in scoring position.

The high-water mark for the Bulldogs was in the bottom of the sixth, when they were down just 5-3. After Ryan Col-lins doubled to lead off the frame, Paxton King fielded Jonathan Ogden’s bunt and easily threw out Collins at third. King induced an easy groundball from Sam Frost for the second out, but a couple of walks loaded the bases for Connor Powers.

USM coach Scott Berry rolled the dice, sending out freshman Jay Myrick. Myrick fell behind Powers 2-0 with two straight curveballs, but

caught Powers looking fast-ball with a third straight curve and induced an easy tapper to third for the final out of the inning.

“To get him to end that inning like that was huge,” Berry said. “Powers is a really good hitter and for a freshman to take his game to that level that you’ve got to be at is very impressive.”

In the top of the seventh, the Golden Eagles put the contest out of reach. Forced to leave struggling Corey Collins in the game, the Bulldogs quickly started to implode. Tyler Koelling tripled with one out, the ball falling just shy of land-ing in Trustmark’s home bull-pen. Kameron Brunty went opposite field with a nice line drive and the rout was on. An RBI single by B.A Vollmuth and an error off a hard-hit liner off Frost’s glove allowed two to score, ending Collins’ night. RBI singles by Dillon Day and Joey Archer and a sacrifice fly by Travis Graves off Greg Houston capped a seven-run outburst.

‘Los Suns’ beat Spurs for 2-0 lead

PHOENIX (AP) — Argu-ments about illegal immigra-tion took a back seat to bas-ketball at tip-off of Game 2 of the Western Conference semi-final series between Phoenix and San Antonio.

Only the words “Los Suns” on the Phoenix jerseys were a reminder of the hornets’ nest Suns owner Robert Sarver stirred up when he asked the players if they would wear the jerseys to celebrate diversity and the Latin community — and to protest Arizona’s new anti-illegal immigration law.

If the issue was a distraction, it certainly didn’t show, espe-cially in the fourth quarter when the Suns pulled away for a 110-102 victory Wednesday to go up 2-0. The best-of-seven series shifts to San Antonio for Game 3 on Friday night.

“I’m proud of our owner for making this stand but we’re not out there to alien-ate,” Phoenix’s Steve Nash said. “We want this to be all about love in our community. People, regardless of whether they agree with me or not, we have love for everybody.”

That love would not apply to the Spurs, at least when the game’s on.

Amare Stoudemire had 23 points and 11 rebounds and Channing Frye made 5 of 6 3-pointers to lead the Suns in a game that ended with almost the same score of Game 1, when Phoenix won 111-102.

Nash and Jason Richard-son scored 19 points apiece and Grant Hill added 18 in a

grind-it-out game played at the Spurs’ pace until the Suns started hitting 3-pointers. After starting 1-of-7 from long range, Phoenix made eight of its next 12.

There was almost no evi-dence in the loud arena of the storm stirred up on Tuesday when Sarver issued a state-ment saying the team would wear “Los Suns” on their jer-seys, to celebrate diversity on Cinco de Mayo but also to protest the immigration bill passed by the Arizona legis-lature and signed by Gov. Jan Brewer.

The bill has drawn criticism from civil rights groups and others, including President Barack Obama, who called it “misguided.”

Obama even mentioned the issue at a news conference Wednesday, referring to the series between the Spurs “and Los Suns of Phoenix.”

“The team stood up for that part of our community because I think that’s the side of this bill that could open the door to racial profiling and racism,” Nash said. “and I’m talking about American cit-izens who are Latino. Their quality of life and freedoms could change because of this bill.”

Braves end 8-game road losing streakWASHINGTON (AP) —

Chipper Jones hopes the Braves learn an important lesson from their longest road losing streak in almost 14 seasons.

Matt Diaz hit a tiebreak-ing single in the 10th inning Wednesday night, helping the Braves snap an eight-game road skid with a 7-6 victory over the Washington Nationals.

“You’re going to have to win games in hostile environ-ments,” Jones said.

Troy Glaus started the deci-sive rally in the 10th with a leadoff single off Matt Capps (0-1). Melky Cabrera’s sacri-fice sent pinch-runner Bran-

don Hicks to second before Diaz, who was hitting .185, looped an opposite-field single to short right.

Hicks scored easily when Roger Bernadina double-clutched and his throw home was late.

“It was a battle, and to win a battle on the road is big,” Diaz said. “It’s no secret we were struggling a little on the road. That’s an understatement.”

Braves manager Bobby Cox was rewarded for sticking with the struggling Diaz.

“I had a hunch Matty’s going to get hot,” Cox said. “He’s a hitting machine. He just hasn’t

got it going, but he will.”Atlanta’s road losing streak

was its longest since a 10-game skid from Aug. 31-Sept. 14, 1996. Although the streak ended, the Braves got more bad news as it happened.

Rookie right fielder Jason Heyward left the game in the second inning with a right groin strain and is day to day. Heyward hurt himself back-ing up center fielder Nate McLouth on Ryan Zimmer-man’s sacrifice fly in the first.

“I don’t know what I did. I couldn’t tell you, to be honest,” Heyward said. “When I got back to my position, it felt sore.”

The Braves also put right-

hander Jair Jurrjens on the 15-day disabled list because of a left hamstring strain.

The 24-year-old Jurrjens, who was scheduled to start Saturday at Philadelphia, sustained the injury April 29, when he left a start at St. Louis after only one inning.

Braves manager Bobby Cox said right-hander Kris Medlen would take Saturday’s start.

Jurrjens was 0-3 with a 6.38 ERA in five starts.

To replace Jurrjens on the 25-man roster, the Braves pur-chased the contract of right-handed reliever Craig Kimbrel from Triple-A Gwinnett. The 21-year-old Kimbrel was 0-0 with a 1.20 ERA in 11 outings.

Leno takes shot at O’Brien in monologueThe late-night television wars are alive and well.Jay Leno took a swipe at Conan O’Brien in his monologue

Tuesday, two days after O’Brien’s interview with “60 Minutes” aired on CBS. O’Brien told the newsmagazine that, if he were in Leno’s shoes, he would not have taken back the “Tonight” show perch the way Leno did from him.

Leno took a shot at O’Brien when he joked about a supposed Facebook page kept by Fais-al Shahzad, the man accused of planting a car bomb in Times Square. The camera panned

over the fake page to groups that Shahzad was a member of, and one of them was “Team Coco.”

That’s the name taken by a group of O’Brien fans angry at his treatment by NBC.

No bids for eccentric Jackson portraitThe outlook for the sale of a one-of-a-kind Michael Jackson

portrait isn’t thrilling.The eBay.com auction of a fantastical portrait the King of Pop

posed for before his death ended with no bids, according to the auction’s organizer. The painting’s owner had hoped to fetch millions for “The Book,” a 50-by-40-inch painting by Australian artist Brett-Livingstone Strong of Jackson wearing a red velvet jacket and clutching a journal.

“I have two parties considering it, so perhaps I will have a buy-er soon,” organizer Marc Samson said Wednesday.

The painting’s owner, Marty Abrams, anticipated the portrait, originally sold to Japanese businessman Hiromichi Saeki for $2.1 million in 1990, would go for over $3 million in the auction, which required a minimum starting bid of $2.75 million. The toy inventor acquired the painting with his partner, John Gentilly, in 1992 from Saeki as payment on a debt.

Jena Malone

Time could be right for CNN, CBS News to partnerNEW YORK (AP) — CNN

and CBS News have romanced each other off and on for more than a decade, and they are checking again to see if the time is right for a serious busi-ness relationship.

Talks aimed at joining forces have foundered in the past due to questions of editorial control and complex labor issues. But the gloomy financial outlook for broadcast network news and CNN’s need to kick-start its domestic network’s ratings give executives at both organi-zations a greater incentive to overcome the problems.

Jeff Bewkes, chairman of CNN parent Time Warner Inc., said Wednesday that “it’s no secret” that CNN talks with broadcast networks and sug-gested they need CNN more than CNN needs them.

“There is a lot of fiscal strength at CNN that essen-tially puts us in a pretty good position offering a solution to the cost problems and profit squeeze that go on in network news,” he said during a confer-ence call with investors. He said it’s entirely possible that CNN

and a broadcast partner can come to an agreement some-time during the next year.

Executives at both news orga-nizations said nothing is immi-nent. But there appears to be a seriousness of purpose that was missing in the past.

Both CBS and ABC News have been losing money as viewers increasingly get their news through cable networks or the Internet. Both news divi-sions have sharply cut back on staff; ABC cut its news staff by a quarter over the past couple of months, primarily through buyouts. Neither network has the advantage of NBC News, which is not only atop the rat-ings but can amortize costs through cable affiliates MSNBC and CNBC.

Some have questioned

whether ABC or CBS’ news divisions can survive long term by going it completely alone.

“The landscape is a little bit worse” than when the two com-panies talked about some way to combine forces in the past, said Marcy McGinnis, a former CBS News executive who was involved in negotiations with CNN more than a decade ago.

With a far more extensive newsgathering structure both domestically and internation-ally, CNN can offer CBS more extensive reporting power, allowing CNN reporters on broadcasts like the “CBS Eve-ning News.” For all of its rat-ings problems, that broadcast is still seen by more people than anything on CNN.

In return, CBS can offer some of its expertise and person-

nel for use on CNN, strength-ening a cable network that has recently suffered severe domestic ratings problems. There is frequent speculation that CBS’ Katie Couric could offer her interviewing skills to CNN, perhaps as an eventual replacement for Larry King.

The news division’s crown jewel remains “60 Minutes,” which generally operates as an island unto itself.

The two companies have worked together in the past and, in the case of CNN’s Anderson Cooper, even shared personnel. Cooper, host of a nightly program on CNN, also does occasional reports for “60 Minutes.” CBS in the past year has hired CNN reporters Erica Hill, Elaine Quijano and Betty Nguyen.

Most recently, CBS News and Sports President Sean McManus worked for several months with Time Warner executives to craft a 14-year, $10.8 billion contract to tele-vise the NCAA men’s basket-ball tournament on CBS and Turner Broadcasting stations.

Both CBS and ABC News have been losing money as viewers increasingly get their news through cable

networks or the Internet. Both news divisions have sharply cut back on staff; ABC cut its news staff by

a quarter over the past couple of months, primarily through buyouts.

‘Price Is Right’ goes beyond TV to Facebook, WiiLOS ANGELES (AP) —

“The Price Is Right” host Drew Carey isn’t playing around when it comes to keeping TV’s longest-running game show current.

Carey has eagerly welcomed iPhone, Xbox, Wii and other adaptations of “The Price Is Right” — and wants to see more, such as a Facebook game set for a June debut.

“I love it. I don’t think they’re doing as much as they should be doing. Business-wise, you should take advantage of every media stream you can,” he said, adding, “I want to be part of a gig that’s doing new things and trying stuff.”

Carey himself is a relatively recent addition: He joined the show in October 2007 after the retirement of Bob Barker, the CBS daytime show’s host since its 1972 debut. (The original “The Price Is Right” started on NBC in 1956.)

Although Carey has put his comedic stamp on “Price” and welcomes the high-tech extras, he says the show remains true to itself. Contes-tants still jockey to “come on down” to the stage and com-pete for prizes by guessing

their retail value.“I look at it as owning a

house. Any homeowner can relate: You’re never, ever done

with your house,” Carey said. “New rug, new bathroom tile, but it’s still the same house. It’s still the same game.”

Brand extensions such as the coming Facebook game “are both serving the purpose of being a profit center and having more visibility around the show,” said Keith Hindle, CEO of FremantleMedia Enterprises, the licensing and brand extension arm of series producer FremantleMedia.

The show also relies on lower-tech means of stoking fan interest. There are “Price”-branded slot machines in casi-nos and two live, paid-admis-sion theater shows, one in Las Vegas and another at a Con-necticut gaming resort.

Ratings for the TV show have been on the rise. Com-pared with last year, it’s up 10 percent in viewers and ranks among within the top five day-time programs.

Despite the bells and whis-tles, the change in hosts and some alterations in the set, “The Price Is Right” retains an air of comfortable familiarity, said Mike Richards, its execu-tive producer.

“That’s the best thing I can hear: ‘This is “The Price Is Right” I grew up watching with my grandma,”’ Richards said.

Bret Michaels says hemorrhage felt like gunshotLOS ANGELES (AP)

— Poison frontman Bret Michaels thought a burglar shot him in the back of the head when he suffered a brain hemorrhage last month that left him in intensive care for nearly two weeks.

The outspoken 47-year-old contestant on NBC’s “The Celebrity Apprentice” told People magazine that the subarachnoid hemorrhage “sounded like a handgun, like it literally popped.”

“It made my mind go almost blank,” he said. “My neck tensed up. I couldn’t move my head at all.”

Michaels said after he expe-rienced the sensation, he began pacing his living room then asked his girlfriend, Kristi Gibson, to take him to the emergency room.

“I knew I was slurring my words, and I was like ‘OK, this isn’t a headache. There’s

something really bad happening,”’ he said.

Michaels recalled asking an emergency room doctor

if he was going to die, and if

he had a chance to survive, he didn’t want his two daughters, 9-year-old Raine Elizabeth and 5-year-old Jorja Bleu, “to see me in this condition.”

Michaels was recovering from his April 12 emergency appendectomy at his Scotts-dale, Ariz., home he shares with Gibson and their two daughters when he felt the severe headache.

He was admitted into a hos-pital April 22 and was later diagnosed with a subarach-noid hemorrhage, which causes bleeding in the fluid-

filled spaces around the base of the brain.

Dr. Joseph Zabramski said at a Tuesday news conference that Michaels was expected to make a full recovery.

Michaels will receive ther-apy and will probably con-tinue to suffer from severe pain for another seven to 10 days as blood pooled under his brain dissolves, said Zabram-ski, chief of cerebrovascular surgery at the Barrow Neuro-logical Institute at St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center in Phoenix.

“I’m a believer it’s a combi-nation of will and good faith,” Michaels said. “Will — and good medical attention — and faith. It just wasn’t my time yet. I really believe that. If I

had stayed on the couch for another hour, that probably would’ve done me in. In a weird way, God intervened: The appendicitis forced me to come home for a couple of days.”

The magazine said Michaels moved to a physical therapy rehabilitation facility on April 30.

Michaels, one of the five stars remaining on the busi-ness-themed reality TV show “The Celebrity Apprentice,” said he plans to make a “posi-tive bucket list” and wants to “continue to rock the world, and I want to continue to love my family and be a good father.”

Natural-born klutzes reach out to lend woman handDear Abby: “Just Clumsy in

Amarillo” (March 24) could be my twin. I am also a klutz who bruises easily. Years ago, when I was a brand-new EMT, my arms were so bruised and purple from lifting stretchers that co-workers started asking if my husband was beating me. Luckily, my husband, a submariner, was on patrol at that time so it let him off the hook.

My husband used to tell me the only reason he didn’t worry too much about me at work was because I wore steel-toed boots, and he sug-gested I buy steel-toed flip-flops and slippers. I can walk through the house and trip over nothing at all. I once broke all the toes on one foot sliding off an exam table in a doctor’s office.

Tell “Clumsy” to hang in there. She’s not alone. Lord knows there are a lot of us klutzes out there and she’s in good company. As long as she can keep a sense of humor about her condition, she’ll be fine. — Another Klutz in Utah

Dear Another Klutz: I

received many responses regarding being accident-prone. While many read-ers shared their “graceless” moments, others pointed out that it could be caused by a medical problem. Read on:

Dear Abby: I have an inher-ited neuromuscular disorder called Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, also known as CMT. It is also called motor sensory neuropathy or peroneal mus-cular atrophy.

CMT affects the peripheral nerves. A common symptom is short wide feet with very high arches, weak ankles, and trip-ping over our own feet. Fall-ing UP the stairs is what we do best. At family reunions, we sit around comparing our funny feet and the bruises from our frequent falls.

“Clumsy” should see a neu-rologist for nerve conduction

testing. The extent of her fre-quent “accidents” and bruis-ing is not normal, and she needs to know what the prob-lem is. — Esther, an R.N. in Idaho

Dear Abby: You were right to tell “Clumsy” that she shouldn’t avoid her friends as that would only increase their suspicions. However, she also needs to include her fiance more in their social activi-ties. If her friends get to know him and discover that he is a kind and compassionate person who respects boundar-ies and knows how to control his temper, their suspicions of abuse will be allayed. — Carla in Virginia

Dear Abby: As a child, my mother always chided me to “watch out, pay attention and look where you are going.” I had bruises all over from bumping into things. At 45, I learned from an ophthalmolo-gist that I had NO depth per-ception. Now I understand why I must look down when stepping off curbs or drive five car lengths behind other cars, etc. “Clumsy” needs to get a thorough eye exam and have

her depth perception mea-sured. — Made Sense of It

Dear Abby: I am 31 and have been clumsy all my life. I have fallen on ice a few times this winter, even though I tried to be very cautious. Thankfully, I have sustained only some bruises and a few pulled mus-cles — no broken bones.

I, too, have seen the looks, rolled eyes and heard the sighs of concerned friends. It’s hard not to become defen-sive when your friends might have a negative perception of your husband. I just smile and make playful reference to the fact that this has been going on far longer than I’ve known my husband.

To “Clumsy”: Drink plenty of milk to keep your bones strong, and maintain a light-hearted attitude when the sub-ject comes up. — Not-So-Gra-cie in New York

DEAR ABBY

Compounding pharmaciesaid Armour Thyroid users

Dear Dr. Gott: Recently, your column addressed the difficulty of obtaining Armour Thyroid.

I would like to tell your read-ers that they can still get por-cine thyroid capsules. Have them made up by a compound-ing pharmacy. Unfortunately, the cost is about three times higher (about $1 a day), but for those of us who choose a more natural way, it is worth it.

Dear Reader: You bring up a point I neglected to mention in my original article. Becom-ing more and more popular, compounding is a method by which physicians can prescribe and pharmacists can produce tried-and-true medications. I congratulate you for thinking outside the box on this matter.

As a point of information, Armour Thyroid in 1 grain (60 mg) and 1/2 grain (30 mg) doses has been manufactured and shipped since February 2010, according to the manufacturer. They apparently selected these two doses because up to 70 per-cent of all people take the medi-cation in one dose or the other, or through a combination of both.

As I previously indicated, Armour Thyroid underwent reformulation. There was a decrease in the amount of dex-trose and an increase in the amount of cellulose, and corn-starch was added. As you might imagine, some users have reported problems with the new formula. Because the tab-lets are taken by many people sublingually, they don’t appear to dissolve as easily (perhaps because of the cornstarch), and they aren’t as sweet as before, making them unpleasant to taste. Other users report pal-pitations, fatigue, weight gain, hair loss and more.

Readers experiencing any unusual side effects not pres-ent prior to the reformulation should speak with their phy-sicians to determine whether compounding or conversion to an alternative is the correct way to proceed.

Dear Dr. Gott: I have a friend who has MS. She has a new problem that the many tests she has taken have shed no light on for the cause or remedy. Every-thing she eats tastes salty, and she has a salty taste in her mouth all the time. Needless to say, this has affected her appe-tite and is causing her much anxiety. She only takes medi-cation for high blood pressure, as well as a monthly vitamin B12 shot and a recently added weekly vitamin D shot. Do you have any idea what would cause the new symptom? What can she do to get rid of it?

Dear Reader: Multiple scle-rosis is generally considered to be an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. From your brief note, it is my guess that your friend has had the condition for some time. Therefore, I must inter-pret her symptoms are related to one of the following: dehy-

dration with inadequate daily fluid intake; antithyroid medi-cations; neurological disorders; or sinusitis and postnasal drip. Saving the most likely cause for last, I feel she is, in a sense of the word, “overdosing” on B12, because many supplements contain a recommended daily value of 200 percent.

ASKTHEDOCTOR

If tomorrow is your birthday: Your financial position could be-gin to strengthen over the year ahead, allowing you to acquire a number of items you’ve always wanted. Of equal importance, however, are several nonmaterial desires that could be gratified as well.Taurus (April 20-May 20) — There is a good chance you could meet someone new today and in time become part of his/her group. Interesting things will develop, making you a major play-er.Gemini (May 21-June 20) — An assignment you take on to-day could end up enhancing your reputation and status among your peers. Big things could occur from the honorable way you deal with everything.Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Several casual relationships you’ve enjoyed are about to become even more important to you. Large benefits will occur from looking out for one another.Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t hesitate to aim for targets you always thought of as being too large or overwhelming. It’s time to elevate your sights regarding the kind of objectives you can handle.Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — You may or may not like partner-ship arrangements, but starting today you’re likely to enter into several that could prove to be quite fruitful. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Starting today, things could begin moving and shaking when it comes to enhancing your mate-rial circumstances. Some type of happening could occur that is likely to generate larger earnings.Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Don’t be discouraged if things haven’t been going well for you in the romance department. Cupid is readying his bow in order to hit a new target for you.Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — It behooves you to use your talents and skills to the fullest at this point in time. You’re enter-ing a new cycle where initiative and know-how will strike gold.Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Your popularity could start to take on a more pronounced upward swing today. Both family and friends are likely to find you more appealing and be more appreciative of who and what you are.Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Soon you might be able to ac-quire several items you’ve desired but have denied yourself for lack of funds. Over the next few weeks your financial prospects could climb significantly.Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) — There’s a good chance you’ve been holding back what is a promising idea because of a lack of faith in yourself. Something might happen today that will cause you to finally reveal your thinking, to great applause.Aries (March 21-April 19) — Debts could be settled once and for all today, either what another owes you or perhaps a pay-ment plan you may have had for some time. In either case, it’ll be out of your hair.

Dr. Wallace: I’m a pretty straight kid, but I did something very stupid last week. I went to an Easter party at a friend’s house, and sometime during the evening I let a guy talk me into try-ing cocaine. It was a very weird feeling. I am not into drugs and I’m well aware that trying cocaine was very stupid. I don’t know why I did it. I know that cocaine is a highly addictive drug.

My girlfriend, who knows about my stupid episode, said I could be addicted to cocaine already and that I would probably try it again — and again. Is it possible that I’m addicted already? Please answer my letter. I’m really frightened. — Nameless, Springfield, Mass.

Nameless: The number of times a given individual can use a drug before becoming addicted varies widely, but profession-als who treat cocaine addicts generally put the number at three. I would say it’s unlikely that you’re addicted — and it’s a very good thing that you’re scared.

You made a serious mistake. Promise yourself that you will never use coke a second time. As long as you keep that prom-ise, you’ll have tangible proof that you aren’t addicted.

Dr. Wallace: Very recently, we had a deadly tornado pass through our state causing much destruction and loss of lives. I have my driver’s license, but I’m not an experienced driver. What should I do if I spot a possible tornado when driving? — Name-less, Jackson, Miss.

Nameless: According to American States Insurance Compa-ny, if you spot a tornado while driving, you should stop your vehicle, look for nearby shelter or lie in a ditch. Tornadoes move quickly and unpredictably, so there is no way to outrun them safely. If you wind up in a ditch, cover your head for protection from flying debris.
